In freedom's fall to flow
mesmerised by gravity
hands reaching out to grasp to heart
what earth does claim her own.
Cliffs polished smooth from fluid grace
in urgency is allured
yet force to reclaim becomes so great
in misty breath some is denied.
Floating to skies deliverance
escaping with the breeze
to rest upon white fluffy clouds
to make heavy for next rain.
In surge so great it captivates
in deluge to rocks below
where the onrush must continue
in whirling, torrential flood.
In rhythmic movements of strength and power
I view in fascination
this graceful dance of nature's own
each seeking the genuine course.
As misty vision's clear the mind
I comprehend my place
continuing through life
awaiting Heaven's call.
